If you are Edam, I'll be BRIE
If you're the princess, I'm the PEA
If you want sausage, I'll bring the D
But if you want Boba, try ROYALTEA
I ran here so fast, I blew out my KNEE
It hurt so bad, like an EMERGENCY
But I said no, don't call the EMT
Just take me for Boba at ROYALTEA
If you're Dr. Watson, it's ELEMENTARY
If you have 2 lovers, wanna make it the THREE?
If the bathroom's empty, I need to PEE
And if you need Boba, go to ROYALTEA
I did a major detour so that I could enjoy this particular Royaltea. I've only ever had it once before (well twice, but from one location) and that is in downtown Boston, and it's one of the very best boba places in all of Boston. I've since had it in several places including Toronto. It's often good.
Everything tasted perfect off of the Boston location menu, but this location was a little bit less than perfect. However I'm still going to give them 5 stars because I want to support their existence and they're not really very busy at the moment, and they're not getting the business that they need.
Additionally I'm a big fan of some of their products, and after a brief 50 or 60 second debate, he agreed to make me what I really wanted - which was the lime tea with black tea instead of green. He is very heavy on the "it's going to taste weird", but he made it for me and that was very important to me because I know what I like. I liked it more than the milk tea, but both of them were missing a little something from the Boston standard, and if I didn't want to support a quiet, up and coming, somewhat struggling suburban location of a top tea shop, I'd have to give them less than 5.
Royaltea has spectacular brown sugar milk tea and their regular milk tea is pretty decent as well - but I delved into the fruit menu and only... and I mean only when they're willing to adjust and put black tea with their fruit teas... they're excellent.
Now for more rap:
If you like Sade, just call me the MARQUIS
If you're running for election, I'm an ABSENTEE
If I'm a Spice Girl, you're a WANNABE
Are you from Nashville cuz you're the only TEN I SEE
If you're Pam Anderson, I'm TOMMY LEE
If I'm Dallas, you can do me like DEBBIE
If you're Macauley in My Girl, I'm the BEE
So float like a butterfly down to ROYALTEA
If this review gets censored you can blame the FCC
Wanna see a Wonka, I'll show you the WILLY
As for Barbie, she's out looking for the BBC
I hope she's willing to share with ME
I mean, there's a reason they call me AC/DC
That's a pretty average night at house of FOX E & BARBIE
And yes I'm very proud that we're both LGBT
But there is nothing average about drinks at ROYALTEA! read more
